Integration

I'm using 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and I have some questions about dcmctl updateconfig. (I've searched the forums and the 10g documents and read the sections on updateconfig, but haven't found answers to my questions.)

First, assuming a Web application deployed to a cluster, is it necessary to run dcmctl updateconfig after changing the application's web.xml file in place on the cluster servers?

Second, assume you have a Web application deployed to a cluster that you wish to enable session state replication for and that you have correctly configured session state replication in Oracle Enterprise Manager. After adding the <distributable/> tag to the web.xml for all instances of the application on the cluster, is it necessary to run dcmctl updateconfig or is it sufficient to restart each instance of the application on the cluster?

Third, are there any Oracle documents that provide a complete list of the configuration files are used/affected by the dcmctl updateconfig command or do you have to infer this list by reading a half-dozen different Oracle documents?

TIA,
